‘Rust’ Gun Supplier Denies Live Rounds Came From Him


Seth Kenney, the supplier of guns and ammo to the set of "Rust," denied Monday that he provided any live rounds to the production.

Seth Kenney, owner of PDQ Arm and Prop, took the stand on the eighth day of the involuntary manslaughter trial of Hannah Gutierrez Reed, the film’s armorer. Boxes of blank ammunition were piled high on shelves, guns were leaned against the wall, and loose rounds were scattered on tables among tools and other clutter. The jury also heard testimony on Monday from Rebecca Smith, who was the key craft services person on “Rust.” She testified that she went to Gutierrez Reed’s hotel room the night of the shooting because others were concerned about the armorer’s wellbeing and did not want her to be left alone.
